Chapter 388 As Long as You Are Willing

"Bastard! Leon and I have been friends for many years, do I still need an invitation letter?" Diego's slender phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a tiny light flashed from the eye slits: "You are so ignorant, Be careful that there is no good fruit to eat. ↗ Vertex Fiction,"

The two guards were under the visible and intangible pressure from the wealthy young master. Both of them were sweating on their foreheads, but they persisted. Just when Diego was about to explode again, a long laugh sounded from behind the door: "Don't embarrass them, Diego, they are just following orders."

Leon walked out with windy footsteps. He patted the shoulders of the two guards and led them to the other side. Then he said to Diego: "Blame me, I missed you."

"I think you did it on purpose?" Diego said with a gloomy face.

Leon said with an exaggerated expression: "How come, who doesn't know that we are good friends."

"Good friend?" Diego laughed dryly twice.

Leon turned sideways and spread his hands inside the door: "Please."

Only then did Diego strode into the venue with his arms around the two women. There was no guest in the venue who didn't know the young master of the Grant family. Especially after the previous press conference of magic equipment, although Diego was not as stunning and talented as Allen, he still showed his face. What's more, his dual identity as a son of a wealthy family and a disciple of Master Lawlins is enough to make these young people make friends in various ways at the reception.

For a while, Diego was surrounded by men and women, like a cluster of flowers. In the center of the circle, Diego had a smile on his face, enjoying the attention of everyone.

Leon quietly walked back to the booth, and said with a wry smile: "The Grant family has some business dealings with us recently, so it's really hard for this kid to sweep him out."

Allen moved slightly when he heard that the Grant family teamed up with Alexander before and regarded Bethkind as the number one enemy. Now they are trying to cooperate with the William family, and the Grant family naturally knows the relationship between the William family and Bethkind. Such an approach itself implies a deep meaning. It should have happened after Maine moved closer to Mobit. Whether it was the recent measures of compensation made by the Alexander family, or Maine breaking the unwritten rule among the nobles, it would make everyone The Grant family began to reconsider their attitude towards Alexander.

Relationships between great families have always been frequent, as merchants often say. There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. The same is true for families, unless it is an irresolvable blood feud, there is little long-term hostility between families.

Of course, the direction of family relations always depends on the overall situation. As for the friction between the juniors in private, as long as there are no major incidents, the big shots in the family will not get involved. So tonight, Diego obviously stepped on Leon's field by changing the family relationship. Because he knew that Leon had to, out of family considerations,

And turn a blind eye to some of his practices.

These thoughts flashed in Allen's mind, and he suddenly felt a little irritated. He only felt that the communication between families was far more complicated than that on the battlefield in Outland. In contrast, he prefers the Outland battlefield. It's more direct and purer there.

Footsteps sounded.

It was Diego who moved to the deck, and Leon frowned. Just about to get up, he was held down by Allen. Diego Shiran walked up to the deck and exaggeratedly said: "It's amazing, it turns out that Master Alan has returned. I thought you might never come back again. If this is the case, many people will sad."

"Master Diego must be the happiest one. But now, I don't think Master Diego will be happy, right?" Allen didn't have Leon's scruples, so naturally he didn't need to care about Diego's feelings.

Sure enough, Diego's face changed slightly, but then he laughed again. But he didn't get entangled with Allen. To the surprise of the few people in the seat, he looked at Adele: "It turns out that the lady of the Mosen family is here, Miss Adele. I really don't know where your Mosen family came from." You dare to refuse the marriage of our Grant family. Do you think that if you get on with Allen, you will really get on the chariot of Beth Kede? If so, why don't you see any movement between your two families now? "

Since the beginning of the reception, Adele has been uncharacteristically drinking alone in silence. Now hearing what Diego said, he raised his head and said, "Even if all the men in the world die, I will not marry you, Diego!"

Diego's face suddenly became difficult to look at, and he snorted coldly: "Don't think that old Kate can protect you. He can protect you for a while, why can't you protect you forever? If something happens to old Kate, you People in the family are eager to send you to my bed, so as to gain the kindness of our Grant. At that time, I will have a good taste of you, a little goblin!"

As soon as the words fell, a sudden murderous intent enveloped Diego's body. Diego shuddered on the spot, as if passing by a sharp blade, and immediately backed away. Then his eyes fell on Allen, knowing that it was him who inspired the killing intent just now.

Allen looked towards Diego slowly, with a calm face, but his voice was like the howling cold wind of the polar region: "Even if there is no Mr. Kate, there is still me. As long as Adele is not willing, no one can force her. Including you Diego."

Jin Liancheng got an oriental folding fan from nowhere, and suddenly unfolded it. A colorful picture of fallen flowers was drawn on the fan. As the fan unfolded, the fallen flowers on it seemed to come alive, and a slight fragrance immediately wafted from the seat. He shook his fan and said with a smile: "Jin is not talented, but he is willing to be the flower protector."

"You're making a fuss." Leon shook his head, looked at Diego and said, "Adele is my best friend, Diego, you'd better keep your claws away. Otherwise, I'm afraid One accidentally chopped it off."

The son of William's family said with a smile, outsiders thought he was joking. But his eyes were sharp, but he didn't seem to be half-joking. Diego's face turned white and turned green, stepped back a little, and said with a sneer, "Okay, let's wait and see."

Then he said to Allen: "By the way, the Federation has named the planet you discovered Paradise Star. And because Paradise Star is rich in materials, its level has far exceeded your Bethkind's development qualifications. So this time, The Federation has opened up the planet to several other families. We, Grant, have been authorized, and I am organizing an expeditionary force, and I believe that we will be able to meet on Paradise Planet soon."

Adele's face tightened, and she looked at Allen. The latter had a calm expression. When he returned, Allen expected such a situation. It is impossible for the Federation to let Bethkind monopolize a planet that is larger than the earth and rich in resources. Allen even thought that the Federation would monopolize it, and now it is open to several other families to participate in colonial development, which is much better than he expected.

He smiled immediately and said: "You are very welcome, but I want to remind Master Diego. The natives on that planet are not very friendly. Master Diego must be careful not to lose everything."

"It's you who should be worried. Pray that you don't get hit by me on Paradise." After leaving these words, Diego embraced the beauty and left.

Looking at his back, Allen shook his head and said, "I really hope to meet him, so that I can get an extra military fee at Grant's house, right?"

Leon laughed, raised his glass and said, "Come on, don't talk about those unpleasant things, drink!"

At the end of the reception, Adele was already drunk. She drank a lot and was obviously unhappy. For this reason, the three of Alan were quite helpless. When leaving, Allen was responsible for sending Adele back. The speeding car was driving on the way to Mosen's house, and Adele leaned on Allen's shoulder, looking half-drunk and half-awake. Due to the effect of alcohol, Adele's face flushed and she looked charming and charming. She frowns deeply from time to time, which is even more pitiful to me.

The car stopped beside a tree-lined road leading to Mossen's house. Adele pushed open the door and got out of the car staggeringly. The night wind blew, and she couldn't bear it anymore, so she vomited on the side of the road. Allen quickly patted her on the back, but watched Adele vomit to the end, and started crying. He sighed: "Adele, don't be sad. Like I said just now, even if the family doesn't protect you, you still have me. And Liancheng and Leon, we will protect you."

Adele shook her head, took out a tissue from her bag, wiped her eyes, stood up and said, "You don't understand."

She staggered forward, and Allen followed to support her. Adele glanced at him, leaned against him, and said, "One night, grandpa asked me if I really loved you."

Allen's body shook slightly, but he didn't speak.

Adele laughed at herself: "I thought about it for a long time that night, and found that from the beginning to the end, I was just pestering you blindly. But I didn't think about whether I love you. Maybe you don't know, before we were going to go on an expedition, Liancheng also came to see me. Although what he said was different, his meaning was roughly similar to that of grandpa. But I didn't think much about it at the time, and I didn't want to pay attention to it. I just wanted to use you to leave the family and escape the obligations of being a woman in the family. Even, using you to gain greater power..."

"I desperately want to catch something. I have been like this since I was sensible. I can see the scenery farther away by stepping on the shoulders of others. So you see, I am not worthy of the promises you just made. "Adele held Alan's hand tightly, and buried her head low: "I've been afraid that you would find out about this. If you knew, you would hate me. I don't know if I love you, but I just think that if I can't be with you Together, I feel sad."

"Alan, what should I do..."

On this slightly cool night, the so-called goblin-like girl took off all her disguise and showed her weakness without reservation. At this moment, Allen could feel her helplessness and hesitation. He took a deep breath and said, "Adele, I'm glad you said these words so that I can hear your heart. What I want to tell you is that as long as you want, we can still explore, go Take risks. I promise, no other person or thing will interfere with your wishes."

"As long as you are willing to!"
